Following the success of DISH 2018 hackathon, BlockDevs Asia collaborated with BlockchainSPACE, SCI and UnionBank of the Philippines to organize the first Inclusive Prosperity Fintech Summit (IPFS) in the Philippines. The event will consist of a fintech conference (Fintech Forum) and a blockchain hackathon (DISH 2019). It will be held at Acceler8 Rockwell, Makati, and Acceler8 Legazpi, Makati simultaneously on April 6-7, 2019.

A mix of regulators, investors, software developers, entrepreneurs as well as economists will give insights and guidance during the event.

The Fintech Forum will take place at Acceler8 Rockwell and will feature talks and workshops from more than twenty reputable leaders in the fintech industry. Topics like mobile money, borderless payments, blockchain will be covered during the conference.

Attendees can freely roam around the venue to check out booths from different fintech companies. This will be a good opportunity to network and be familiar with the latest trends, products, and services featured in their booths.

In parallel with the conference, the DISH 2019 hackathon will take place at Acceler8 Legazpi. Organized and headed by BlockDevs Asia, the hackathon will encourage and guide software developers, analysts, and enthusiasts to come up with a blockchain-based app addressing real-world problems.
